Welcome to Honda-Tech, home to some of the biggest ******** in the world.

Anyway, I won't criticize you too much.

A rough estimation would be somewhere around 140-145whp area.

The best thing to do is take it to a dyno and find out.

Yea a buddy of mine had a b16 with dc header, cold air, aebs intake mani, chiped ECU, and 2.5 exhuast. His trap speeds indicated around 145-150whp.(He also had a 4 puck clutch and light weight fly wheel if u think that could have helped)

go have it dynoed. you're trying to have someone calculate the hp by just saying your parts. that's called theoretical hp. you will never get theoretical hp. your best bet is to just go get it tested. or go make a couple runs at the track and find out how much your car weighs and if you go online and search for a hp calculator, you put those in, and it'll tell you your approx. hp.

what would be better to hold boost with stock internals... the JDM B16a (2nd gen) or the USDM B16a2
I just recently blew my JDM B16a which i heard they were pretty reliable. i have no clue what happend.. but the 3rd piston crumbled to pieces... so i want to buy a USDM motor this time.. what do u think now that we are on topic of the B16a
